"I purchased 11 windows from fairway on 6/27 with a 4-8 week timeframe. They said it may run up to 9-12 weeks due to supply delays and that was fine with me. After 3 months I contacted them and was told they aren’t in with no estimated arrival date. I continued to call and sometimes I was able to get through to the receptionist who was always in her car and didn’t have any additional information to provide. She would always say that Gary would get in contact with me but out of all the calls I made, I was only able to speak to him once. I continued calling and by late October they finally said 5 were in and agreed to install them which was done on 10/31 and said they would discount me $150.. They did not notify me that they were coming to install on that day and left the door to my unit open but at least half were done so I was somewhat relieved!! I proceeded to call until late December and they continued to say no windows. At this point, I asked to cancel them because I was looking at selling and since over 6 months had passed I no longer had need for them. They said this wasn’t an option and that it would have to be canceled through the manufacturer. I asked for that number but they wouldn’t provide it and said she would have to call to check. No update was ever given. Now we are at mid March, a full 9 months since ordering and I have given up on receiving the windows. They required half a deposit upfront which was 2001.58. The windows that I did not receive were going to require more work removing the steel so they were more expensive than the 5 I did get. So in short, over the last 9 months, I ended up receiving half my order and paid $2000 of the $4000 bill but only received $1375 worth of my order. I feel liked I was scammed out of my money for services that were never going to be provided and I just want a return of my deposit that was taken from me. Now after seeing how many others are in the reviews experiencing the same thing I filed a complaint with BBB and my credit card company."

"Excellent, no problems. My car was new the first year I used the service and there has never been any damage during the transports. The men picking up and delivering the car have always been pleasant and cooperative. Both Ely and Guy at United Transport has been highly responsive to my needs. I would highly recommend this company."

"Overall the quality of work turned out nice. However, the experience with DFC Home Improvement was not exceptional. The administration process was messy to say the least. This ranged from permits being disapproved due to submitting incorrect blueprints to the county and long winded conversations with the owner Brian. A word of advice is to screenshot and save all quotes DFC Home Improvements sends out, as I believe they are modified and update previous versions on their site. Ultimately, we were happy with the quality of work. The project was completed in six weeks, when expected to finish in five. The total cost was $45,950 when the quote was for $38,750 about 18.5% over estimate. I have other projects that I wanted to complete in the future, but I think I will find another contractor for those."

FAQs for elevator installation and replacement projects in Richmond, VA

With proper maintenance and regular professional inspections, a quality shaftless elevator can provide reliable service for many years. The system's longevity depends largely on usage patterns, maintenance frequency, and component quality. 

Establishing a relationship with a qualified service provider and following the manufacturer's maintenance recommendations can significantly extend your elevator's functional lifespan and ensure continued safe operation.

Standard homeowners’ insurance policies may provide limited coverage for damage to elevator equipment caused by covered perils such as fire or severe weather, but often exclude mechanical failures or normal wear. 

Before installation, contact your insurance provider to understand coverage limitations and determine whether you need additional protection. Most insurers require notification when adding an elevator to your home, and some may adjust your premium accordingly.

Residential elevator systems require dedicated electrical circuits with appropriate voltage to operate safely and reliably. The specific power requirements vary by manufacturer and model. Before installation, a qualified electrician should evaluate your home's electrical system to determine whether upgrades are necessary to support the elevator's operation, including any backup power systems that might be recommended for safety during outages.

Weight capacity varies by manufacturer and model, with most residential systems designed to accommodate one or two passengers safely. The elevator's documentation will specify maximum weight limits, which should never be exceeded for safety reasons. 

If you need to transport heavier loads or accommodate mobility devices, discuss these requirements with your elevator provider to ensure you select an appropriately rated system.
